It’s been waiting for you

Top – Miss Selfridge via charity shop

Jeans – Primark

Trainers – Nike Outlet

Bag – eBay

Recently I’ve been finding that charity shops are starting to take the mick. Charging over the odds for a second hand Primark dress? No thank you. However not so long ago a new charity shop opened down the street from me that has had some amazing bargains, like this dress that I posted about a while back. Whilst browsing the rails I came across this gorgeous embellished top from Miss Selfridge and nearly put it back, expecting it to cost a small fortune, but I was pleasantly surprised to find that it was only £3. It’s safe to say that this is my new favourite charity shop!

This next fortnight is going to be probably the busiest I’ve had in a while with only one free day, but lots of exciting things are happening! This week I’m starting back interning in the Becky White PR office and then my mum & dad will be coming back from their cruise (I can’t wait to see them) then next week it’s my birthday week and I’ve got a jam packed diary. The blogger meet up that I’ve arranged is just under two weeks away which is very scary but fingers crossed it all goes well. I can’t wait for my room to look less like a sorting office and more like a bedroom again…
